Wine Review: This dark ruby California red blend has an intense bouquet of dark cherry, barnyard and dark chocolate. It is medium bodied, juicy, dry and smooth. The extracted flavors of cherry, plum, cranberry and black pepper blend nicely. It also has a hint of oak. The dusty tannins linger nicely. Pair with some sliced smoked beef brisket. – Mark

Winemaker Notes: Enjoy this medium to full-bodied luscious red wine with a variety of flavorful foods. It's smooth with nicely balanced acidity and has dark cherry, raspberry and toasty notes with a plush, rich finish.
